Sever- al lmportant movements are plan- ned this week, but for the first part at feast only elementary drills will be engaged in. There were hundreds of Kingston people at the camp on Sunday. Peo- ple went over in automebiles, bug- gles and on foot, and a thorough in- spection of the camp was made. Sen- tries prevent only those on business from actually going through the lines, but the streets at the sides are 'as close as the average visitor wis es to go without bothering the men.

Of course every umit claims to have the best position in the camp, but all the positions are good, and exceptional precautions have been taken against being flooded out, ; Lieut.-.Col.

"To Haye the score 10 to 2 in their] favor at the end of eight innings; and then fo have the Athletics rally, make eight runs and the tie was the experieice of the Ponies on Saturp day afternoon. This City League game was' uneventful for the first eigat innings and everything point- ed to & win for the Ponies until the unexpected happened. lt was a case of "won in the ninth" for sure, and a bigger sensation has not been putl- ed off on the Cricket Field in years. The first score was made by the Ponies in the first innings the 26th Battery, reached the plate when Cotman ded a three-bagger to centre field, The Athletics made two in thé same innings but ho more runs were scored until the fourth when each made one. On two hits and two errors in the fifth, Ponies scored three, and on four erros made four<runs in the sixth innings. This seemed to bring the Athletics back to earth, as they settled down to business and played baseball. For two innings neither team could score. In the ninth the Ponies "blew up." Gallaway reached first on an error by Saunders and made the first run when Tait let Evans down to first on an error. The result of the innings showed that eight runs had been made-on four hits and four errors. It was simply a case of a pitcher's fight to the end and Gallagher and Tait were putting everything they had on the ball and the fielders, when it did get away, were the only players busy. In the first of the tenthy H. Toland singled but was left stranded on second. When the Ponies finished the tal- ly showed that Gallagher and Saun- dérs had reached first on errors but got no further than second, The Mthletics then put up Cotman. He got down on a wild throw from J. Evans. Spoor wis given a pass, Gal- laway hit safely and Cotman scored Cunuings. Tait and H: Toland then were" struck out. The Ponies got one hit in this innings. The first triple play of the sea- son was made in the eight: Toyne hit safely, Cotman was hit by the ball and walked, and Spoor hit an infield fly. This was caught by Gallagher who jhrew to second catching both players on bases. Athleties--8. Toland, 2b; D'Arcy Smith, 1b; Coyne, If; Cotman, ¢; Spoor, ss; Galloway, 3b; Cummings, if; Tait, p; H.

J. F. Quinn, manager of the Re- giopolis team, iuformed the Whig on Saturday that his team 'was go- ing to protest on the constant draft- ing of junior players to the senior ranks. Two players, Spoor and Gal- laway, were counted on for playing on the junior team on Saturday, but when the team came on the field the fact became known chat they were playing senior from now on. Mr. Quinn claims that it is not a square deal to the junior teams to have, their players drafted without notice, The junior teams cannot take the same interest in the form- ing of a strong team. - . - x when !l; D'Orey Smith, the *Varsity man with '} innings; finally won out from the : THE CRESCENT TALKING MACHINE, $15.00.---1t js equal to any $35.00 Instrument on the market.
